265 The Moose in the Snow
While passing through a street, a painting studio caught Liam’s attention.
There was a painting hanging in the front of the studio window, a painting of a moose.
The street where the studio is located is not too big although it is quite busy. From the highway where his car was, he could see the studio very clearly.
Liam’s gaze was fixed on the window, trying to take in everything around him.
The young girl sitting in the passenger seat turned her head over and over again and looked at Liam. Every time she looked at Liam, her face would turn red, pink.
She had never seen a man this handsome.
In addition, not only handsome, this man is also very warm and gentle. This man really fascinated her.
Plus, the way Liam treats her is very different from Haikal. Liam treats her like a woman who deserves respect.
At the thought of this man beside her, her heart skipped a beat.
.....
“Sir, may I know your name?” She came to Liam’s company with Haikal, not knowing who she would meet there.
The girl’s voice broke Liam’s thoughts and made him turn around.
At first glance, this girl really looks like Ella.
Unlike the current Ella, this girl’s eyes were so innocent as if she had never experienced many bitter things in life.
“William Jaya,” Liam replied politely.
The girl felt very excited after getting the name of the man she admired. This extraordinarily perfect man told her his name.
The girl immediately said, “Hello, Master William. My name is Clara.”
“Hmm...” Liam only gave her a fleeting reply. He didn’t care about her name. He didn’t care at all even though this girl was similar to Ella.
The only woman he cares about and loves is Ella.
Clara wasn’t disappointed at being ignored by Liam. She still looked at Liam with pleasure and tried to ask him a few things.
Liam didn’t answer. His eyes were still on the studio’s door. Finally, he decided to turn the car around and stop at the studio.
“I’ll take you home next time, okay?”
“Yeah,” Clara nodded quickly. It doesn’t matter if Liam doesn’t drive her home today. She will have another chance to meet Liam.
Of course she wouldn’t miss it.
Liam glanced at the girl’s face and then averted his gaze.
There had been no news about Ella for the past few days, making him feel slightly panicked. This girl suddenly appeared in front of him. His panic was immediately replaced by a sense of relief. That’s why he didn’t tell his driver to take this girl home and deliver her himself.
But Liam realized that this girl was not Ella.
His Ella was still in an unknown place. His Ella is still missing.
He really missed Ella.
“Are you interested in painting?” Clara asked excitedly.
Clara has a cheerful nature. At the first look, maybe she will look shy and introverted. But it didn’t take long to get close to her. Chatting with her also felt very natural.
Clara is a simple girl.
It was the only word Liam could think of to describe Clara.
When he saw the girl, Ella’s face came back to his mind.
Ella often pretends to be strong when faced with problems, even though she is actually very fragile at that time. Now Liam doesn’t know where Ella is and can’t help her.
While thinking about it, Liam subconsciously walked towards the studio.
There were several people in the studio. From time to time, they would comment on some of the paintings hanging on the walls. After that, they will estimate how much the painting will cost.
Liam had never been to a place like this before. But somehow this new place made him feel refreshed.
He stood at the door, looking at the painting of a moose that had caught his eye.
Luca walked over to him and smiled kindly. “Are you interested in this painting?”
The painting is a painting that Ella made. There was only a moose in the middle of the canvas, while all around was a blank white sheet. But if they looked closely, they could see an invisible white dot.
The white dots are snowflakes.
The painting depicted a moose that survived in the sea of ????snow.
Liam nodded and said, “The girl I like once painted something similar to this one and gave it to me. I once asked her why the background was blank. She said that not everything can be seen with our eyes. Sometimes, we also have to feel it with the heart.”
“What a coincidence,” said Luca. “The girl who left this painting also said the same thing to me. She told me to pass it on to the owner of this painting later.”
“That girl...” All of a sudden, Liam felt a strong premonition in his heart. He knew that the painter was Ella. He drew closer to Luca and asked excitedly, “Who is that girl? I hope you can give me her identity.”
“Sorry, we have rules here. We cannot reveal the identity of the painter arbitrarily. What if it affects my business later? I could go bankrupt.”
Luca smiled politely, giving Liam a refusal. Liam could only nod and said sadly, “She must have left this town.”
For Ella, this city was a place that brought many tears to her eyes. This city is a place where all her sufferings befall her.
Most likely, she had already left this place.
Luca just kept quiet.
This is none of his business, but Ella’s personal business. He did not want to interfere and could only be professional.
Clara immediately asked, “Master William, do you like someone?”
Why didn’t Haikal tell her anything? Haikal took her and said that the man she was about to meet must really like her.
She obeyed Haikal’s words for some money. She needed the money for hospital expenses. At first, she thought Haikal would give it to a disgusting middle-aged man. But who would have thought that she would meet a very handsome man.
Once she met Liam, Clara had no intention of letting him go again.
“Yes,” Liam answered briefly, without elaborating further.
Clara’s face immediately paled after hearing Liam’s answer.
How could all this happen?
She looked at Liam with a disappointed look. She was really disappointed that Liam already had a woman he liked.
Why had she only met a man like Liam today?
If only she had met Liam sooner...
If only she was the girl Liam liked...
Maybe she wouldn’t suffer in this life.
